Range Indicators for Champ Clones or Created Units

Something I've been curious about and wondering, if Riot is planning on or considering at some point adding range indicators for champions that can create clones or innately create units.

Namely: Annie Leblanc Mordekaiser Shaco Yorick

Right now the only way you know the exact range when these units will come back to you is if you look them up via alternative sites. Not even Riot's main website tells you how long their range is before they teleport right back towards you.

Arguably? Why does this matter? Well, it's not the utmost importance, however champions like LeBlanc and Shaco can use their clones as distractions, or ways to throw off the enemy. It would benefit to be able to know the point where they cut off in those moments to use them effectively that way. Shaco's ult is called "Hallucinate" and LeBlanc is a deceiver so just from those alone you'd think it would be good to know where your clone will come back. These would just be quality of life changes.

As for the other 3 it would just give them an idea how far they can be from their clones (or Tibbers in Annie's case). Orianna has an indicator for her ball (though it is a central part of her playstyle so it makes sense) so I don't see why they couldn't add that.

The only issue I can think of is clarity and what the range indicators mean to the player. You either add it under yourself and possibly confuse the player or add it to the clones/units themselves and see if that becomes less confusing or more confusing.

Any opinions or this or possibly better ideas?
